Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

On your bedroom ceiling?

It used to hang over my bed. But I don't hang things near/over my bed in earthquake country. Although I would consider it if I weren't single. Which is, probably, why I am.

I consider my "Surrender the booty!" flag in my bedroom both safe and sufficiently suggestive.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

but it's not that much of a secret, is it?

Not when you cheerfully tell people with a slightly evil smile, it's not.

But it's awesome.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

OK, I've been offline since sometime early Thursday, so I'm catching up.

This may be the first time this has been said in a long time:

Oh, sod it. I'm moving to America.

But then, you'd miss out on candidates like this. Seriously - wouldn't he be a great representative for Buffista Island?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

FB friending is super weird. I had someone pop up that I didn`t know but also had Knut the Difficult as a mutual friend. So I messaged him to see who it was and it turned out he didn`t know the person either, and was just more generally well disposed to people (and potential author fans) than I. So I declined. But I turn down lots of stuff all the time and don`t feel bad about it. Because I am a misanthrope! I am allowed to decline creepy disembodied yet still beating hearts! That`s part of what being a misanthrope means!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The people I feel bad about ignoring are the ones I sort of vaguely remember as probably going to my high school maybe a year or two behind me but I don't think I ever talked to them and I can't really remember their faces, so they just stay on that "pending friend requests" page in case something jogs my memory and I decide that I really do know them.

I friended someone from High School and then realized that I remembered the name of my actual friend incorrectly and I have no idea who this guy was.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm stressy, and cold. Cold because the weather is weird. Stressy because, while it seems like one college is going to hire me, they haven't actually said so yet. Also stressy because I'm going to have to move out of my apartment sometime this summer, and it's still way too much of a mess. Maybe I'll try to do the cleaning in stages. Today, um. I can clean off my desk.

I've also been mistaken for an author who has the same name I do. If by some miracle I get published, then it can really get confusing.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ha, yeah, I came across that author recently and had to confirm that it wasn't you.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I have some stuf to do tonight that I don't wanna. Anyone want to do a productivity thing over email?
